This work explores the methods for estimating the effects of innovations in larger, more diverse settings and provides theories and models to guide the design of innovations most likely to remain viable at large scales.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSumming Up: Recommended. Graduate students and faculty. * CHOICE, January 2008 *\u003cbr\u003eScale-Up in Education, Volume I, and the discussion it is sure to start, could not have come at a better time. With the growing emphasis on scientifically rigorous methods to learn what works in education, education researchers, policymakers, and practitioners must begin to consider what impacts may occur in moving from smaller scale studies to larger contexts and more diverse populations of students, teachers, schools, and communities. This volume pulls together a range of approaches from a variety of disciplines to help us think about theoretical and practical issues involved in 'scaling up.' All 14 chapters deserve thoughtful consideration. -- David Myers, Mathematica Policy Research, Inc.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePart 1 Part I - Conceptualizing Scale-Up: An Educational Perspective Chapter 2 Chapter 1 - Educational Innovation and the Problem of Scale Chapter 3 Chapter 2 - Principles for Scaling Up: Choosing, Measuring Effects, and Promoting Widespread Use of Educational Innovation Chapter 4 Chapter 3 - Generalizability of Treatment Effects: Psychometrics and Education Chapter 5 Chapter 4 - Estimating the Effects of Educational Interventions Part 6 Part II - Modeling Scale-Up: Lessons from Other Fields Chapter 7 Chapter 5 - Scaling from Prototype to Production: A Managed Process Perspective from Industrial Engineering and Management Chapter 8 Chapter 6 - From Efficacy to Effectiveness: Translating Randomized Controlled Trial Findings into Treatment Standards in the Health Professions Chapter 9 Chapter 7 - Linking Program Implementation and Effectiveness: Lessons from a Pooled Sample of Welfare to Work Experiments Chapter 10 Chapter 8 - Forecasting the Effects of Scaling Up Social Programs: An Economics Perspective Part 11 Part III - Breaking Boundaries: Successful Scale-Up in Transforming Organizations Chapter 12 Chapter 9 - Breaking Boundaries: Scaling Collaboration in Time and Space Chapter 13 Chapter 10 - Socio-Digital Formations: Constructing an Object of Study Chapter 14 Chapter 11 - Measuring and Managing Successful Organizational Scale-Up Part 15 Part IV - Synthesizing Concepts of Scale-Up for Education Chapter 16 Chapter 12 - Toward a Program of Research on Scale-Up: Analytical Requirements and Theoretical Possibilities Chapter 17 Chapter 13 - Successful Scale-Up in Three Stages: Insights and Challenges for Educational Research and Practice Chapter 18 Chapter 14 - Technology and Scale-Up: Implications for Research and Practice","brand":"Rowman \u0026 Littlefield Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51037610606935,"sku":"9780742547315","price":43.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780742547315.jpg?v=1750936488","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/scaleup-in-education-volume-1-ideas-in-principle-9780742547315","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
